I imagine it runs fine in easy debian. It ran fine for me for 3 days and is so far the only decent email app in debian (thunderbirds equivalent segfaults on me).

It runs like all the other heavy apps run (iceweasel, gimp, etc).

The tablet crawls running evolution and iceweasel at same time...but the above graphic was taken with gimp & evolution + xchat and pidgin running. Ran fine.
